If Taking Multiple Hair Loss Medications, Do You Recommend Stopping One Medication if it Shows No Improvement?

February 6th, 2007

Q: If I use the dutasteride for one year and do not see a noticeable improvement can I quit the Avodart, continue the daily dose of Propecia and expect to retain the same “holding pattern” I have now?

A: If Avodart is helping to maintain the status quo then you can expect to lose some hair, i.e. return to where you would have been if you had used finasteride alone.
